Some weeks just aren't going to be what we would like for them to be. Prime example? This one.
Yes, even if it is fall!
Conley has not slept a wink. I think it's because of his teething stage. He's cutting his top two as hard as he can! Cam is at the stage where he says "mom" 435 billion times a second, even a f t e r I reply with "what? yes son?"...he decides he has to poop for 35 minutes the second it's time to walk out the door. He also does an aerobics routine every time I try to dress him or put his shoes on. Try that for an early morning!
NOW I know why I drink so much coffee.
The harder I try to clean my mom's house or our car, the more it snows a blizzard of toys & other random items or um, dirt. It seems as though some weeks it all comes down on you & it's like wading through quicksand to make it to Friday.
I don't like to complain or vent, I'm just trying to be "real." As much as I adore everything about my life with my babies, it's hard sometimes! I know there are tons of other people in the world going through so much worse & his grace is sufficient for us all no matter what happens. At the end of the day, it is well with my soul & I have a healthy precious family so I am the most blessed girl that could be.
I think I'm in need of some light-hearted friday favorites!
one. footed jams & snuggle weather
I'm just going to leave this picture right here. There is nothing better in this world than snuggling a baby in footy jammies ;) Moments straight from Jesus, y'all!
two. october countdown
Prepping for a post on our bucket list for October! I really want to make this such a fun month for the boys. Well, technically Cam because all Conley cares about is what's to eat or drink:)
three. what's in Cam's backpack
Cam going to preschool at age three came close to ripping my heart out. What am I going to do when he starts kindergarten?? Let me just say, one of the highlights of my day is looking in his little backpack. I love finding things he did at school & any little notes from his teachers about the upcoming fun things they are doing so I can get him pumped up for it:) L i k e the Halloween party...;) Can I come? So. precious.
four. birthday party prep
You guys, I really lucked up in having a baby on October 25th. I m e a n, we can have a Halloween party/birthday party e v e r y year! That makes my little festive heart sing. I can use his party decorations annually allllll during the month of October & for his party. Poor thing may never have a party of choice-until he's a threenager that is!
Mr. Cam has decided he wants a football party this year.
1. His birthday is in March
2. He doesn't even watch football
3. This will be the theme for the rest of his life...b o r i n g
4. How old is he again??
I thought I'd be able to "encourage" his theme selection til' he turned at least 15!
Getting off the soapbox. Hehe.
five. fall is in the stores! (& Christmas)
I (along with every one else in the world) love the Target dollar bins. They had all three seasons stocked full the last time I went---halloween, thanksgiving, and christmas + of course Cam found something, too;P We attempted to embarrass Daddy & Conley in all of our excitement. I guess we were itching to buy everything we seen, but instead we just wore a toboggan & storm trooper mask around the store while we took everything in & avoided buying anything. How's that for budget savvy?:)
The look on Conley's face says it all. Good thing we didn't know anybody...
People can have more fun than anybody;)
Til' October! :)
